Parc Hotel Gritti is a three-and-a-half pearl property set on lovely Lake Garda, about a 10-minute walk from Bardolino. The 260 rooms are a mixed bag: some are nicely renovated and have balconies; others are badly out of date with orange curtains and tube-style TVs. Three restaurants and two bars keep everyone fed, and the wellness center with an indoor pool, whirlpool, and spa helps guests relax. The large outdoor pool is a popular place for everyone to hang out, and guests also have access to a private, grassy beach club on the lake. Travelers may want to consider the Parc Hotel Germano Suites & Apartments as well, which has rooms with private pools and a more uniformly modern style, but higher rates.
